Jayme Fortune - Here Lies

Wake up, roll out, get outside
Wake up, go now, get up, drive
If this was my last day on earth
And all that remained, a headstone, engraved with an epitaph
I hope that it would say, here lies, the most genuine of lives
I'ma lick it, pour it, sip it
Flip it, pour it, lick it, sip it
Should I risk it? Pour it, sip it
Listen, I don't want a ticket
Take a shot! Do not sip it
If I pour it's 'til we finished
I'ma pour it, 'til we all can't afford to pay the business
I'ma lick it, pour it, sip it
Flip it, pour it, lick it, sip it
Should I risk it? Pour it, sip it
Listen, I don't want a ticket
Take a shot! Do not sip it
If I pour it's 'til we finished
I'ma pour it, 'til we all can't afford to pay the business
Sorry that I didn’t choose to visit
You were in the hospital, I’m texting
Jayke and Jade but I refuse to send ‘em
Sympathetic words I chose to message
Fuck, it’s all you get, that’s it I’m done
No capacity in me for love
Can’t connect with you, since you were gone
You thought getting licked and having fun’s
Worth more than three kids you had with Mom
I just feel like shit cuz I’m your son
I don’t like to feel like I’m undone
Wound so tight I know what’s bout to come
Tears begin to flow, they start to run
Eyes are shut like I looked at the sun
Use my shirt to wipe away the sum
Boy it hurts to see what I've become
He don’t want to fall like he fell last time
But, he want to feel what he felt last night
He don’t want to break, he’d be fine to wait
For another way he just want to be a real nice guy
He don’t want to fall like he fell last time
But, he want to feel what he felt last night
He don’t want to break, he’d be fine to wait
For another way he just want to be a real nice guy
I'ma lick it, pour it, sip it
Flip it, pour it up
I'ma risk it, pour it, fill it
Listen, I don't want to miss this
What, I don't want to miss out
Broken promises have left my tongue
I just left the bay, goodbye to Juan
If I had a dream, I got it wrong
Can’t catch up to me, I’ve chopped the bonds
No way I am free without the Lord’s
Hand upon my life, I’ve wrestled God
If I live I’ve got to carry on
When I fly I got my carry-on
Baggage that I’ve had since I was younger
If you want to dance, then only one
I will take the lead when I am stronger
Strong enough to lead you in my arms
If I feel like we don’t got a bond
No need to ignore what’s going on
Let me leave you with some food for thought
I am just a product of my pops
Let me be the one to set it straight
I wish I could say that I relate
Girl, you go to church a faithful saint
I stay home, can’t wait to masturbate
What a way to live, it brings me shame
How can I be clean from all the stains
If I die before I wake today
Pray the Lord He take my soul away
I don’t want to be like that
I don’t want to drink like I’m just like dad
I don’t want to be fake looking just like that
It’s lame, living life like that
Yeah, I don’t want to be all that
I don’t want to drink ‘til I see all black
If I can’t speak and you see me fall flat
Stay with me just like that, looking just like that
I can not believe what’s going on
Man, I think the way I feel is wrong
Even though I know she’s got a man
I’ll pretend that I’m the one she wants
Not the type to tell her what I want
I would rather tell her every thought
Close to being honest but I’m not
Girl you’re beautiful, without no flaws
This is true and that was not the lie
All it needed was the other side
If you ever left this other guy
I would treat you better than he tried
See, he treated you like you would live
Without the thought to ever leave his crib
Manipulate the way you feel instead
That ain’t cool, and I know that it hits
Home for you and home for me
If I made it home for you to sleep in peace
You’d never feel alone or feel like I would leave
For another woman, no way, it’s not for me
No other person on earth like you to me
Every time you speak, and you move so beautifully
Every time we kick it, man it feels brand new to me
All I want to do is love you truthfully, but you hear lies
He don’t want to fall like he fell last time
But, he want to feel what he felt last night
He don’t want to break, he’d be fine to wait
For another way he just want to be a real nice guy
He don’t want to fall like he fell last time
But, he want to feel what he felt last night
He don’t want to break, he’d be fine to wait
For another way he just want to be a real nice guy
Wake up, roll out, get outside
Wake up, go now, get up, drive
Just another day, will you try, just another day
Yeah, wake up, roll out, get outside
Wake up, go now, get up, drive
Just another day, will you try, just another day
